Longtime friend of the college Marie Alston looks back on the day she and her late husband, Hugh Smith, toured the Lookout Mountain Hotel, and the hard work it took to transform the hotel into a liveable space for Covenant College.

In 1964, a few brave men and women helped Covenant move into an abandoned hotel in Lookout Mountain, GA. Listen to alumni, staff, and friends of the College as they reflect on that move and on Covenant’s past fifty years on Lookout.

The mission of Covenant College is to explore and express the preeminence of Jesus Christ in all things. We offer the world biblically grounded men and women equipped to live out extraordinary callings in ordinary places.
